    In the old Play.tv scam slot. It just came on and I can't bring myself to watch it but I'm sure it involves premium lines and premium texts and most likely reverse billing scams. :(

    It is in their schedule under the euphemism "Teleshopping" . I suppose they hope nobody will notice bar the muppets prepared to ring these charlatans.

    Is this thread not more appropriate to go under 'Broadcasting' rather than Terrestrial ??

    Their Own Listings say "Teleshopping" and the On Screen Disclaimer says "Entertainment Service" . This was posted in the Television Forum thread.

    Its similar to lotto/scratch cards - it's always the people who can't afford it are the ones who waste money on it.

    Psychics are shameless sheisters. Trampling over the memories of desperate, vulnerable people for a few euro. A heinous way to make money.
